Caramelization

If the horror takes fire damage, it releases a sweet, mesmerizing scent. Each creature within 30 feet of the horror must succeed on a DC 11 Wisdom saving throw or have the charmed condition. A charmed creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Magic Resistance

The horror has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Actions

Multiattack

The horror makes one Bite attack and two Candy Cane attacks.

Bite

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) piercing damage plus 10 (3d6) acid damage.

Candy Cane

Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a Large or smaller creature, the horror can choose to deal no damage; instead, the target has the prone condition, and the horror can pull the target up to 5 feet toward itself.

description

No one is certain of the true origin of Sweettooth Village. This eerie, abandoned town constructed of gingerbread and frosting lies deep in the wilds of Eldraine. Some say the fiendish candy monsters that prowl its butterscotch-lined streets were once servants of a powerful witch, and the entire place was a trap created to lure hungry travelers. But if the sugary horrors of Sweettooth Village were ever under someone's control, that time has long since passed.

"I smell frosting. Ready your weapons!" — Greta, scourge of Sweettooth

Horrors of Sweettooth Village In addition to the Sweettooth horror described here, creatures found in and around Sweettooth Village might include gingerbrutes as well as variations of oozes from theMonster Manual. For example, a black pudding might have a delicious chocolatey flavor, a gelatinous cube might have a more decorative shape and taste fruity, and an ochre jelly could smell like butterscotch.
